We are not lawyers, but Advocates with
this Visiont: “We are joining forces with all persons affected by
Parens Patriae
to include parents, extended family, foster parents and father's and mother's
rights groups. While this is a difficult endeavor due to various divisions, the
focus will be on challenging the system with the unified goals and commonalities
that each is suffering under in family courts, Child Protective
Industry, and other related Government Agencies.”

Parens Patriae>(n) is Latin for "father of the people". In law, it
refers to the public policy power of the state to usurp the rights of the
natural parent, legal guardian or informal carer, and to act as the parent of
any child or individual who is in need of protection, such as a child whose
parents are unable or unwilling to take care of him or her, or an incapacitated
and dependent individual. In U.S. litigation, parens patriae can be invoked by
the state to create its standing to sue; the state declares itself to be suing
on behalf of its people. For example, the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvement Act of 1976 (15 USC 15(c)), through Section 4C of the Clayton Act,
permits state attorneys general to bring parens patriae suits on behalf of those
injured by violations of the
Sherman Antitrust Act.(See:

For your consideration, here are links to
affiliated sites, organized
in approximately 2001. A group that started as Foster Caregivers Falsely
Accused, but through Sharing, Caring, and Guidance, have been of Assistance to
ALL Families.

National Foster Parent
Coalition for Allegation Reform (NFPCAR) was originated by
Foster Parents Falsely Accused, in 2001. Throughout the years, and close to
80,000 posts on our Yahoo Discussion Group, the organization has
evolved to include ALL PARENTS
Falsely Accused by the Agencies, who were designated to Protect The
Children.
We are the victims of the Governmental system
(Parens
patriae), who are
supposed to be the protectors of abuse.
It is time to stop the devastation to innocent families which is occurring daily across the country.

Foster Parents
Legal Solutions (FPLS) was founded 1998. Our
mandate was forged from direct personal involvement. We witnessed, first hand,
the foster parent dilemma. We have personally experienced the bureaucratic
quagmire with its personnel maze leading down the path to a legal and social
abyss. We were made painfully aware of the need for a safety net against this
out of control run away “child protection system”.

In
this and other questions in our past project,
"Did You Know Series", we need to let the readers
know that your Foster Families Examiner is not an attorney.
Therefore, can only offer you advice based on twelve years of experience
in dealing in the Foster Care System, acting as an advocate for hundreds
of foster parents.

I sincerely hope this information has stimulated some
interest. "Knowledge is Power". And if each one of us wants to Care for
Our Children, we must ALL be responsible for our actions. The basic concept of
Agencies assisting our Families was to recognize, the concerns Families may
have, and Guide them to make their Family Stronger in these trying times.

So please pass this information on to others, and keep in
mind these three words: Sharing, Caring, and Guidance. Words that will assist
those who call themselves "A Family".

One Small Voice to make a world of difference...I challenge you
to be one of those voices"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have been trained by
acting as an advocate on behalf of foster parents across the nation
for twelve years, and functioning as a foster parent myself for fifteen
years.

I
also have one of the largest
chat groups on line for foster parents who are under Administrative
Law, and need assistance. A National toll free number has been
functioning for twelve years, enabling them to have one on one counseling, a
personal touch.

We have CD power point
trainings available on this subject, currently being used, to train
attorneys who specialize in "Family Law", When any of the attorneys have
expressed an interest in learning more about "Administrative Law".

I am currently working
on a book, commonly known as "Standing
in the Shadow of Law", the fourth edition. It is a text book, if you
will, to equip Foster Parents with an educational tool. It offers them an
unparalleled opportunity to learn, grow and become more knowledgeable within
this confusing Foster Care System. With the information that is within this
book they can comfortably defend themselves,
Pro Se. They can
represent themselves in a courtroom atmosphere,
Administrative Law. However, we do encourage them to obtain an attorney,
this book organizes their cases for their attorney. The attorney's who have
seen it, have been impressed with both it's contents and the instructions
within.

We teach a basic course in

1."Administrative Law.
We believe knowledge is your best defense. Other subjects we offer are as
follows;
2. "Documentation, How important is it"?
3. "Allegations, the storm no one tells you about
4. " So you want to be a Foster Parent"?
5." Foster Parents Presentation.

These presentation are
in the form of Power Point and easy to understand. We are happy to answer
any questions that you may have after viewing the presentations. You will
find the educational tools located on our website; www.
foster-parents-legal-solutions. com

Why we seek to educate
foster parents across the nation, because we believe that you need to have
your questions answered. Not with the
"Gloss Over Approach" that a lot of trainings use, but with truth. We
believe in you, and are here to support you.

We also have an
information website at www.
nfpcar.org where we store data on behalf of biological, foster/ adoptive
parents. Welcome to the information highway for foster/ adoptive and
biological parents. Marilyn Harrison your servant and advocate
